I'll ask about that. 14:15:17 * rdieter poked heliocastro in #fedora-kde 14:19:03 can someone else take over chair duties for a bit, need to help get kids into car (and off to school) 14:19:57 OK, I'm taking over. 14:20:23 So anything else about Qt 4.6 or KDE 4.4? 14:21:47 it slips until ppc64 issue is solved... 14:21:56 Right. 14:22:07 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=562249 14:22:29 We need some solution there, I wonder if people would hate us for adding ExcludeArch: ppc64 to all of KDE. 14:22:59 But I'd like to get the thing to build if at all possible. 14:24:28 we can add it temporarily 14:24:44 ltinkl: Not so good. 14:24:56 We'd have to add it to everything, then remove it from everything and rebuild. 14:25:07 ltinkl: overhead... 14:25:12 No Qt means no anything. 14:25:18 rebuild everything twice 14:25:21 hmm, right 14:26:52 #topic feature freeze is upon us, update feature page status 14:28:08 So rdieter added this one. 14:28:26 KDE 4.4 is 95% 14:28:30 It's mostly just a reminder that we should update our feature pages. 14:28:37 I think we can put it at 100% now, 4.4.0 is in. 14:28:46 pulse 100%, pk 95% 14:28:54 so we can change it to 100% 14:29:24 For PK1, you're the one who knows best. 14:31:44 I changed KDE44 to 100%. 14:32:22 I'll update http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/13/FeatureList 14:33:10 It's not our job to update that. 14:33:16 It's the Feature Wrangler's job. 14:33:28 You should update the PolkitQt1 feature instead. 14:34:00 Kevin_Kofler: then he fails in this job as it was only 80% for kde 4.4 and I update always both pages to let him know 14:34:39 OK, then go ahead. :-) 14:36:13 #topic disabling nm-applet in KDE for F13+? see also: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=429431 14:36:48 OK, next topic. We still have the problem that nm-applet cannot be disabled, so if it's installed, we have 2 NM frontends running in KDE. 14:37:17 I propose that nm-applet autostarting should just be disabled by default in KDE for F13 and higher as we will default to knetworkmanager. 14:37:25 All it takes is a NotShowIn=KDE; 14:37:30 We don't have any better solution. 14:37:56 Comments? Objections? Approvals? 14:39:25 I don't see any better option for us 14:41:06 ltinkl? svahl? Anyone else? 14:41:20 ye, just disable nm-applet in KDE 14:41:32 here too 14:42:11 I guess that's already a majority, so we'll implement this unless somebody comes up with a better solution very soon. 14:43:21 #agreed The GNOME nm-applet will be disabled by default in KDE for F13 and higher (even when installed). 14:43:36 So I think that's all for the topics, up to bugs. 14:43:40 #topic https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=562851 update to 4.3.5 breaks "Exit Session" dialog (F11) 14:43:58 So this is just a FYI: this is breakage I accidentally caused and I'm already fixing it. 14:44:15 F11's ConsoleKit doesn't have CanStop. 14:44:24 So we need to use the old ck-shutdown patch there. 14:44:46 #info kdebase-workspace ck-shutdown patch reverted on F11 to a version which doesn't check CanStop (not available on F11) 14:44:47 I saw @ #fedora-kde, ok 14:44:51 thanks 14:45:01 #topic https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=549687 kdm: no autologin on first start (Rawhide) 14:45:32 This is another one I'll be looking at soon, it looks like the ConsoleKit daemon and libck-connector are out of sync, which is quite strange because they come from the same tarball. 14:45:49 But it seems that KDM is the only or the only major user of libck-connector. :-( 14:46:05 The bug hasn't got any answer so far. 14:46:48 If this don't get fixed until alpha we'll need to mention it in the release notes (it breaks livecd autologin) 14:47:33 I'll do what I can to fix this. 14:48:01 #action Kevin_Kofler to investigate what's going on and try to fix this 14:48:13 let's ping on the bug one more time, consider marking it as an alpha blocker 14:48:15 sure. :) Just want to mention the need for the release notes 14:48:33 I'd at least expect one comment from the libck people in bugzilla... 14:48:49 Yeah, the lack of reactions really sucks. 14:49:16 I'll double-check, but from the logs, to me, it seems pretty clear what's wrong (the lib and the daemon don't agree about interfaces, somebody changed one without the other). 14:49:41 Fixing it might require an API and ABI break in the library though, depending on what changed in the daemon. 14:49:52 But I'll know more after looking at it. 14:51:04 #topic open discussion 14:51:16 So, any more bugs, topics etc.? 14:52:00 nothing from me 14:52:37 Just a question for the live images: Which package should I include: amarok or kdeplasma-addons (atm they don't fit both) 14:52:48 amarok I'd say 14:52:55 https://fedoraproject.org/w/index.php?title=SebastianVahl/CurrentPackageList&oldid=151451 14:53:42 amarok 14:55:34 ok, amarok then 14:56:48 Note that plasma-netbook will not be usable without kdeplasma-addons, but I guess we aren't supporting that one on the live image at this time anyway, are we? 14:57:03 We need at least parts of kdeplasma-addons for plasma-netbook to work. 14:57:57 I'm not sure we want plasma-netbook for default spin 14:58:00 Kevin_Kofler: no, we don't. I just added a "netbook" boot option hack for testing 14:58:41 jreznik: As the default? Definitely not! 14:58:53 The default will always be plasma-desktop. 14:59:14 It might make sense to have a separate KDE Netbook spin with plasma-netbook as the default though. 14:59:45 But so far we don't have a spin maintainer and the spin approval deadline has already passed, so I don't think we can make it happen for F13. 14:59:51 Maybe F14. 15:00:30 Kevin_Kofler: no, I thought - even not to have/support on default live... netbook live is another story 15:00:53 Supporting plasma-netbook as an option on the KDE spin may or may not make sense. 15:01:10 I'd say at this point it's not mature enough. 15:01:38 jreznik volunteered as a spin maintainer some meetings ago (I and annew offered to help). But we thought that it was better to be released in f14 15:02:05 svahl: f14 should be our target 15:02:23 So I'll take the plasma-netbook blocker off the F13 KDE blocker list. 15:02:34 +1 15:02:51 BTW, the one issue still on it should be fixed by now (we have Qt 4.6.1), but it's waiting on svahl's confirmation. 15:03:13 I'll try to test that this evening 15:05:13 we are over guys 15:05:45 yeah, be careful or we're going to start bugzapping all over youz. 15:05:55 #action svahl to test whether the plasma-netbook Qt issue is still reproducible 15:06:03 #endmeeting
